Granny Smith Malus Sylvestris Apple Blossom Under Plastic Tent Stock Photo

This is a close-up image of Granny Smith Malus Sylvestris type Apple Blossoms in the cold morning light. The tree is being protected from a spring snow under a plastic drop-cloth tent. The morning light is filtered through the translucent covering. Little woolly hairs on the stems are lit up by the light. In the early stages of blossoming, the flowers are shades of mauve, pink and white. Later when the petals open, they are mostly white. The picture was taken in early April, on a morning after a spring snow fall. There is a single drop of water resting on top of the largest blossom. The image could be used to represent spring, protection, waiting for the future or gardening in general. There is room for text at the upper left. The image could be used as a background or screensaver.
